- The Mont Pèlerin Society ("a preference for minimal and dispersed government")
"After World War II, planned economy, state intervention, and nationalizations were enjoying widespread success. Many were convinced that progress was to be achieved by intervention of the state."
"The Mont Pèlerin Society, however, rejected these ideas, judging it indispensable to regenerate political freedom and a free market economy. Among its members were Ludwig Erhard, originator and driving-force of the German miracle; Jacques Rueff, champion of the gold standard; Professor Hayek, author of the acclaimed book “The Road to Serfdom” and future Noble prize winner; Walter Lippman, the celebrated journalist and essayist who wrote “The Good Society”; Milton Friedman, the future Noble prize winner, adviser to the American president, and inspiring force of the Chicago school."
